About HYROX
HYROX is the operator of the world's largest fitness racing event, with an ecosystem of training and coaching built around performance, participation and community. Combining 8 x 1 km runs with 8 functional workout stations, HYROX has created a standardised race format where professional athletes and everyday competitors compete in the same event. Founded in Germany in 2017, HYROX now hosts races across more than 30 countries, alongside HYROX 365 training clubs and programming, HYROX YoungStars, ELITE 15 professional competition and HYROX Experiences.
Our Volunteers Are the Heart of HYROX
Every HYROX race runs on people who show up with energy: Race Crew, Judges and Head Judges. Many of our volunteers are athletes and fans themselves. They know the product, they believe in what we do, and they make the day better for everyone on the start line. We see them as a core part of our community, and we're looking for someone who feels the same.
The Role
As Event Workforce Coordinator, you'll be the friendly, reliable face of the HYROX Event Workforce Programme across Asia-Pacific. Reporting to the Regional Workforce Manager, you'll look after our volunteers from their first enquiry to their last shift, and help grow the community by connecting with universities, gyms, sports clubs and fitness communities across our markets.
This is a remote role that blends warm, personable communication with strong organisation and attention to detail.

- Process registrations, cancellations, withdrawals and shift changes.
- Monitor registrations against each event's workforce needs.
- Track incomplete applications and unallocated volunteers.
- Maintain event trackers, contact lists and workforce documents.
- Support post-event attendance reconciliation and data updates.
4. Reporting & administration
- Track recruitment, registrations and allocations.
- Report on fill rates and outstanding workforce needs.
- Spot registration drop-off and recurring volunteer pain points, so we can keep improving the experience.
